Car has LATCH support so any approved car seat will fit.

From experience the kids will screw up the leather. They will drop all sorts of nasty shit behind the seat and it will get ingrained into the seat.

Kids are fun but the younger versions really don’t go well with nice cars, my kids are 12 & 14, past the age when they ruin the car, when they were babies I lost the battle keeping the car clean.

We got the Nuna Rava that has a cool attachment: a Range Rover Sport.

No kids in the M5 (I don't have my F90 yet, but no kids allowed).

I had young kids in my F10 and used a Britax Marathon. Worked great. Yes, they drop things here and there, but they can only drop what you give them. So they knew daddy's car had different rules than mommy's car. Goldfish, cheerios and water are pretty harmless. I still put a black towel down under the car seat just to add some extra protection to the seat. Mine knew not to kick the back of the seat, but you can always get those seat protectors.

Nice leather seats in the back of the M5 but kids enjoying the cheap Graco.

I just put a bath towel down and changed that frequently. The baby milk is the worst when it comes to drying out on leather seats and staining white spots.

thats unique color. I might seal it!

I use the recaro seats for both of my kids on my F80 and Raptor. and plan to use them both in my F90. Works well, kids love it.
